well, can this be made for C++? yes. moreover, gcc does this trick
*automatically*, while with ghc we need to write 50-line program using
Template Haskell and then run it through gcc - and finally get exactly
the same optimization we got automatic for C code
so, again: this confirms that Don is always build artificial
comparisons, optimizing Haskell code by hand and ignoring obvious ways
to optimize Haskell code. unfortunately, this doesn't work in real
live. and even worse - Don reports this as fair Haskell vs C++
comparison
